Best gimbal head made today

Mulitple unique features make it the best gimbal head overall. First key feature is the lever that locks the head so if the camera is removed from the lens it keeps it from flipping forward which is great when adding or removing a teleconverter in the field. Second feature is that its fully adjustable and this is done with no need for tools. This makes it easy to get the center axis of the lens at the correct height. Third feature is that it easily breaks down into three pieces which makes it far easier to find places for them in ones carry-on luggage when traveling by plane. No other gimbal head provides these features and at $400 it is a steal.

Used with 150 - 600 sigma sport lens

Used on gitzo tripod with sigma 150 -600 sport lens. Tracks and moves nicely with many adjustments for fine tuning. Even fully locked down though it would move very slightly. Though I think this was tripods fault as this setup was slightly too heavy for tripod and there was 5mph wind gusts. Overall very satisfied with product. Appears to have very good build quality and consistent movements. Would recommend.
